X303, 1.6 roller rockers, and protopline 180 58cc heads?

[IndyBlk5.0]

If in fact my valvetrain is shot, I am thinking about going with the protopline 180 58cc heads.
(shown here are the 64cc flow numbers, and have been verified by an outside source) http://www.procylinderheads.com/f2204000180.htm
X303 camshaft with stock ratio roller rockers would be somewhere around this.
Advertised duration: 299 intake/309 exhaust
Duration at .050 in. cam lift: 222 intake/232 exhaust
Gross valve lift: .510 in. intake/.534 exhaust
Lobe separation: 112 degrees
Peak horsepower rpm: 6,000
Peak torque rpm: 2,750
Power range 2500-6000 - Fair to slightly rough idle
P/V clearance will be fully addressed by a machine shop. Stock pushrods and lifters will be okay?????
With my gt40 lower ported by Tom (tmoss), and a 70mm tbody, I hope to exceed 300rwhp, maybe 330 range.... possible?

no comments huh?

you say that you want the 58cc heads, but list the flows for the 64.... which one are you getting? go with the 64 to lessen the compression ratio.

why would i want to lower compression when a blower or any power adder is not in the plan for this motor? It has hyper pistons

my bad. i thought that for some reason you said something about a blower.

scratch that cam, it is the wrong specs. need cam advise. Something that will fit =)

hey, indy. i hope that someone will answer your questions because i have no idea. i think you should be 300+. as soon as you know you need to let me know first! i love the idea of an affordable head that can, from initial reviews, have great power potential.

thanks wantagt...

Will my B303 with 1.7 roller rockers only hurt my performace? Or will it work well?

 

[WantaGT]

if it was me i would run a bigger cam with 1.6, maybe a custom cam but i think the x would do fine. but i'm not an engine guru by any stretch so maybe someone will confirm for me

 

[IndyBlk5.0]

pretty sure there is no way the X cam would clear. (p/v clearance wise)
michael yount? thumper? tmoss?

 

[WantaGT]

you maybe need to cut your pistons

A bigger cam with 1.6? That cam is already pretty damn big I doubt he needs anything bigger. If I were you and I was already tearing everything down to do it right, I would call someone up and get a custom ground cam to maximize your performance.

it's definately not huge though

True, I got away with running the x-303 with GT-40x aluminum heads with stock rockers/pushrods..

My opinion though would be to get a custom ground cam

 

[WantaGT]

same here i'm just sayin i would rather have the x than teh b

Valve events determine P/V/C not peak lift... IM me later I have a suggestion for you.
